I installed the Vorshlag camber plates yesterday,we spent the whole day dialing in the height and camber. The front looks much better now,Final results 👏🏻

The fake fender flares make it appear to not sit as flush as I usually like which was driving me crazy!! I almost ripped them off lol - But it’s extremely close to touching the tire on the inside of the fenders. I like how the flares look,so they are staying….. For now

Question for you - how were the Acexxon reflectors installed? Do they pop out or did you have to take the bumper off slightly and push them out like the G8x?

Thanks!

Which camber plates did you use? I only found Vorshlag ones for the f series.

I took them out from the rear,I did not want to drop the rear bumper and deal with potential issues with the sensors.

Looking good! Why did you decide to replace the TRE lip? And what splitter did decide to go with instead?

It looks nicer since it’s more aggressive,but the TRE is better quality CF and stronger

I'm glad to hear it looks better. I had heard the quality wasn't quite as good but you don't think that will be a concern longer term do you? I've heard it's slightly lighter too.

If you don’t hit anything,you will be fine lol - It’s for sure lighter,and at almost half the price of the TRE. It’s a nice option
